Watch Dogs - Control Everything - Games

[QUOTE=Thunderbolt;44931429]Just played a round of Decryption, IT WOULD BE FUN AS HELL IF NOT FOR THE STUTTERING WHILE DRIVING. Also what is with games with open microphones and people who feel like they need to shove their mics up their asses[/QUOTE] Who doesn't enjoy shoving mics up their asses ;]

I was hacking into one of the homes, expecting it to be a rather silly situation, Instead I got entirely the opposite. Lemme explain (mini-spoilers just in case): [sp]I hacked in to a laptop that looked like it was on its side/on the floor near a coffee table. I saw a gentleman near his phone laying down on the floor, but his face is obscured by the angle and legs of the coffee table, and he isn't moving. So i look around as best as i can with the cam to see if maybe he drank too much, or worse. Sadly it was the latter, The guy was 73, Retired, and in Remisson. He was dead. I was about to leave the cam, until i saw that his phone was hackable, and that was when it hit hard. He had a voicemail from his son, the son was talking about how he misses him, and cares about him, how he isn't a burden and all that, and also that he hasn't heard from him in a few days, and he'll be coming over with the family tonight for dinner to make him feel better about the situation he was in. I don't know why but that particular off scene item struck a cord with me.[/sp] Other than that this game has so far been exceeding expectations for me, and I am on Windows 8.1 as well and having all the issues you guys have had so far with connecting to others. However, I have been invaded 3 times already with no issues.

I cannot get into a free roam session for the life of me... I got into one vs match this morning and that was it :C I really want to play this online I am loving the single player.

Yup, just tried online matchmaking - I managed to find a game against a mobile user, but none of the other gamemodes work, on Win8.1. [QUOTE=mattmanlex;44933316][t]http://i.imgur.com/68Ksy3W.jpg[/t] Uh what[/QUOTE] This is just a hunch, but you wouldn't happen to have MSAA enabled in the graphics settings?

[QUOTE=nikomo;44933397] This is just a hunch, but you wouldn't happen to have [B]MSAA[/B] enabled in the graphics settings?[/QUOTE] ? I dont see an MSAA option

Anyone else unable to log into Uplay?

And this was looking so good... Oh well

Sorry if this has been mentioned before. Kind of lame how you can't go very far out (infinitely) in the water like Just Cause 2. Instead there is an invisible wall. It's probably just there for gameplay concerns. If so then I understand.

So far been playing n hours, n being some time around 24 hours ago, I think? Haven't began Act II.

I have no clue what's happening. I have the latest AMD drivers and it just bluescreens over and over and over and over again I can't get get 2 minutes into the opening mission.

Is it just me or does Psychedelic play like shit? I got the rest of the game to run really smoothly (and it's really fun when you do) but Psychedelic controls like ass. One tap of a movement key could mean either nothing or halfway across the map.

It's simple enough so you can beat a track without too much problems, but it's a different story if you're trying to get all three trophies each track. I'm not sure if it's the controls, or the precision required that make getting all the trophies hard, but it seems like you'll either overshoot your target, or miss by a mile with a simple tap.

Reinstalled. Logged in after 20 minutes. Can't activate. Can't download the patch. Then Steam popped up with a client update as a reminder than I can still play other games online in the meantime.

For some reason Avast decided that the Watch Dogs exe was a threat and I had to specifically tell Avast "no, thats a video game."

How are the VR/AR stuff? Haven't even touched them yet...

I love how activating the traffic lights also deactivates the common sense of those driving nearby :v:

[QUOTE=imadaman;44933721]How are the VR/AR stuff? Haven't even touched them yet...[/QUOTE] I haven't tried NVZN, but Cash Run is pretty fun.

[QUOTE=LurkyLurker;44933781]its trying to save you from a objectively terrible game[/QUOTE] If most people believe the game is good here, then why bother posting? You're just going to dig yourself a hole.

[QUOTE=Zadrave;44933813]B-but muh graphics! It's a bad game if it doesn't have graphics![/QUOTE] I've played about 6 hours of the game, having better graphics won't make it a better game when the gameplay feels absolutely terrible.

[QUOTE=Chains!;44933876]I've played about 6 hours of the game, having better graphics won't make it a better game when the gameplay feels absolutely terrible.[/QUOTE] But the gameplay isn't terrible. The port could use some work though.

[QUOTE=Keychain;44933880]But the gameplay isn't terrible. The port could use some work though.[/QUOTE] Movement feels ridiculously sluggish, the gunplay doesn't feel right at all, the driving is worse than Saints Row.
